@jimbob: The post you cited covered points 1 and 4. so I'll take your word on those. Cult at this point is a bit tricky as there is no team to try to read connections from and they're as much in the dark as to who is scum as town is. I know they are potentially the greater threat, but it would take ...

What about cult-leader!Suzaku, who successfully recruited? (Personally, I think Suzaku is town, but he could potentially not be). Order of operations isn't my strong suit, but it couldn't hurt to ask. I had assumed he was on the top of your Town>Scum list solely because he was the target of the NK....

Couple of early game day thoughts: --Suzaku getting himself NKed and there still being one cultist alive makes my -1 read of him late D1 seem rather silly. --For my own personal use, I am reading patzer's oblivious hammering of heury as the complete accident that the facts would indicate. That of co...

Halloween 2021 I wonder if Madge realizes that by not having immediate flips and the general reluctance of power roles to claim has continued D1 conditions that she despises into the first part of D2. She also decided that my Phoenix persona is an Irish Doctor Who character (O'ody), much to my confu...

Well, I suppose no flips was predictable, but it's still annoying. The one game I remember that didn't have flips all game got really frustrating and was a triumph for scum. Waiting to vote seems a good option.

No, definitely not Wolowitz.

... Howard.

Somewhat better. But if you could get an actual icon for the button, that would be optimal.

Halloween 2021 Patzer is going to get sooooooo much flak that unknowing hammer. The obvious scum thing to do start of D2 would be to pounce on it hard seeing as she was already the alternative elimination for D1. I am therefore going to not do that and maybe instead go with "You know patzer, in...

Starting after Wed morning my time bessie: correction to me about bf research, test vote on Madge, huery discussion, experiment with modvote turns out negative, setup spec, Snide just new, flavor spec, not happy with heury So far can infer maybe two reads out of her, so I would like to echo boomfrog...

Alright then.

Vote: patzer

patzer's high content volume -> townieness model is going to be broken so hard when she runs into scum!Sabrar. The bottom end of her list being mostly (if not solely) based of this model makes me a bit nervous, especially since that's where you'd pick elimination targets from. I still have her as vo...

Halloween 2021 Well, thrown into the deep end my first game back as scum...with wam. So far contradicting my usual meta okay, some of the newbs are unwittingly helping me out with that. Just remember that the only reason I'm going after you hard is that I'm the bad guy and you're low hanging fruit. ...

PS. Just read rattamer's post re patzer's pronouns. Apologies for last post, will remember for the future.

Well, I was hoping to hear something from patzer before I re-evaluated him, but as of right now I am putting him at a rating of -1.5, making him just as voteable as heury. As for Snide, here's a post by post on him post 1: previous experience post 2: asks about jimbob read post 3: asks about cult po...

The research was on Boomfrog’s meta at heury’s request. Well in that case, you're totes scum :P . I guess that's the downside of skimming with a seasoning of groupthink going on. Moody: Isn't anything for me to latch onto either way here, neutral. I had a whole reads list that I put some effort int...

Ah, found it. Even though he crossed it out as being irrelevant to his read this game, I think it's still an honestly held opinion: wam is a teesy bit scummy but with the wam discount is still probably town. Wait, wam voted for the mod. Hmm, no read on him yet then. For a wacky game that actually mi...

@moody, you have wam as negative? Why? Someone on here said (LG or BF I think) that wam's meta was a default read of slightly scummy, which kinda matches up with my hazy 2+ year old recollections. A rating of -0.5 would follow on from that and a neutral reading on someone I have experience with, as...

bessie: a few responses and questions, dubious of heury with some research on his meta. Town lean (+3) boomfrog: no gambit this game, quasi-RV somi, newbie help, declares heury scum. Town lean (+2.5) heury: answers Snide about jimbob, votes BF, dismisses Laserguy's question on him intervening re Sni...

@BF: :lol: This is what I missed about mafia games at the xkcd forum. I get your point on the setup providing enough grist without your patented blend. Laserguy's question on jimbob's ordering of threats looks to be from a townie POV to me as well. Why pick on moody who is never hyped for anything? ...

Vote: boomfrog If you have a sufficiently entertaining gambit for D1, I will unvote. Regarding the AS (anti-social survivor), my gut reaction is to treat them like a SK sans kill. I don't know if this is the proper tactics for them (or even if the metaphor makes sense), but it seems like a good sta...
